hosted the 2nd Annual Joe Ferriso Classic on Sunday, April 22nd
at Shuart Stadium. In their first game of the day, the Pride took on #5 ranked
Temple, losing on a last second goal by the score of 8-7. Hofstra would bounce
back however, as they rallied from a 7-4 halftime deficit against Quinnipiac to
win 8-7 in overtime on Mike Benvenuti’s second game-winning goal of the week.
The event raised money for a scholarship in memory of former club member Joe
Ferriso, who passed away in 2015.
